Don't want to use WRT54G as gateway

Is there a guide to setting up a WRT54G by connecting it to a switch so it
just allows a wireless connection to be made to that existing switch?
I've been searching but without some unique words it's pretty hard to
narrow the results. Thanks for any pointers.

You disable DHCP on the router that makes it a switch that makes it a
wire/WAP switch. Also, that Admin screen where you tell it to Obtain an IP
form the ISP's DHCP server, you configure it to use a static IP of whatever
the gateway device is computer, router or FW appliance.


This link below may help.

The in-between version?

I edit such URL's to remove the session ID's and other user tracking
debris, leaving only the important parts. In this case, all that is
necessary is the FAQID number at the end.
